Life As It Presents Itself

"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin--real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life." -- Alfred D. Souza

Back on track to a slightly more sporty lifestyle. Something which I'm more accustomed to when I was a teenager. Haha... Require less sleep then perhaps. Now as age catches up with me, the body is sounding out that I need more sleep. Haha... :D Love to listen to soft music and, sit back and relax these days. Catching up with some old friends over the weekends over a cuppa tea, coffee, or booze is something of a norm in recent yrs too. :)

Sad Sad

The weather more or less sums up my feeling today. Gloomy, feeling sad... Meetings and partings are part and parcel of life. Sigh...

There was 2 paths ahead of me then. 1 was to venture into the unknown, and the other was the exact opposite. I chose the unknown then, happy abt my choice. And yet now, I'm sad that I've chosen it. Haha... Funny how things can change just like that. I'm not regretting my choice but I'm sad that I've got to leave all that I've built up behind, not that it's of any big significance to many though. Haha...

Sad conclusion to my week. Hope the happy will come soon. What choices have I got anyway? I've made it to this stage, I've gotta make that happen. It's all in the mind, it's a mind game that I've gotta overturn to win.

Hopefully next entry will sound gd. Cheers!!!

Sad Friday Looming

The first tinge of sadness had begun to creep in. People within are congratulating me on my departure, and yet here I am, beginning to feel sad about the whole thing. It was really a difficult decision to make and a difficult action to take. I've been thinking of quite a while whether this course of action has to be taken. I guess I didn't really have much choices.

Today, he told a friend that he's disappointed that I didn't approach him for help when I needed, but it's like even if I've told him, what more can he do? How can he justify for it? It's difficult I should think. As he's said, he sees himself as a mentor and a friend to me and I guess I see him as my mentor and a friend too. It really saddens me that I've got to leave him and a friend in the lurch. I didn't meant for it to be this way, things were different then. Unfortunately, accidents do happen and it happened. I really feel bad and sad.

The only thing I'll miss there is the people that I've grown accustomed to. I'll miss my team, my wonderful team. Hopefully, there'll be a chance to work together with them again. They're such magnificent people. It's hard to find colleagues of the same wavelength and in the same team, working for each other.

I ought to be happy for this day to approach, and yet I'm not. Sad... Nothing lasts forever, it's either I who leave, or someone else in the team, sooner or later. I certainly hope I don't leave the team with a bad name or reputation. I wish them all the best... Cheers!

New Year

A belated Happy New Year to all!!! New year relates to new beginnings, new hopes, new dreams, new directions and new resolutions, provided of course that the previous year's was met. Haha... For some like me, guess it's gonna be recycled. :P What about ya?

Hmm... Guess my most important task is to get a betta paid job for now. Since one of my aim last year was alr met. So comes the extra person, so need to extra vitamin m to make some things happen. Haha... Know what i mean? ;P Things are moving pretty ok so far this year. Hope that it stays on this track if not betta. Who'll complain if it's betta rite? Haha...

Played mahjong over on New Year's day. Started off bad, cos i'm emptying my chips drawer, but in the end i still made 15 bucks from the table. Thanks to the 13-odds game and a full 'zhi mo'. Haha... That kinda turned the tides around for me. And boy am I glad. My sis lost 38, and dad 15, so ya can roughly guess how much my mum made. :)

Time to get my butt back to the work. Cheers to all for the new year! Hope it's a gd one for each and all.
